Room Escaping: The New Crib Escaping

When we moved into our wonderful abode Joshua's room did not have a door. Instead, it has a 24 inch wide opening, with one side backing up to the chimney. In case you are wondering, all manufacturers of baby gates, and dog gates do not make a product narrower than 26 inches.

Since we could not contain Joshua in his room, he decided IF and WHERE he would be taking a nap as well as sleeping at night (usually in our bed).

Needless to say, I was not happy with this arrangement.

Who, meeee...take a nap? Why, I am the king of the cottage.

Does anyone know a good woodworker??

So Seth built a cute dutch door for Joshua's room (with Josh's help).






And, the results the first time I closed him in his room for a nap...


Please know that I put him in his bed with NO SHOES ON. He got out of bed, tromped around a little, put on one of each boot and then passed out on his big boy bed. Success!
